It’s a trite but true refrain that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. For most of us, it’s been about 12 hours since our last meal and our bodies need a good refueling.

The best combination is to have organic soil together with organically produced seeds or plants, that way you ensure you get the full flavour and benefit. Containers can be placed anywhere that receives a reasonable amount of daylight, whic
